thanks wendilla, I caught the ISS last night late on, really good view and it must have been over France and we could still see it! didn't see the other 2 satellites this time but now I've seen them once I shall expect them every time, awesome sight.

[wendilla]

That is right Dot. I did not stay up late last night but as there is a chance of the atv just behind the station I will stay up if skies are clear.

good evening wendilla

do you know when the supply vessel is scheduled to dock with the ISS?

[wendilla]

It will not dock till the 15th June

[wendilla]

It is taking much longer than the shuttles took . They went in 3 days.

Going over right now ..........

Just seen the supply ship - absolutely bombing along, much quicker than ISS but following on it's trail. .............(wait ...for... me :))

[wendilla]

That was worth waiting to see Ann. Don't it give you an erie feeling when you see atv catching up especially when you know what it is . Hope to see a few more sightings as it don't dock till the 15th.Don't think I will be watching the Iss tonight too late at 11 29. But the Atv is first at 10 45pm for 5 mins.

Supply ship? Wow! I don't think I've ever seen that.

[wendilla]

JJ as the ATV gets nearer we might be lucky to see a double fly bye in a few days. Have seen quite a few when the Shuttles used to go.
